The University of Wisconsin softball team survived to play another day in the NCAA Tournament with a 3-0 win over Canisius on Saturday night in Gainesville, Florida.

Peyton Bannon’s home run to left field kicked off the bottom of the fifth inning, and a two-run double by outfielder Molly Schlosser in the sixth allowed UW (29-20) some breathing room to record the victory.
